KC'S CLOSET

United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) Philippines Ambassador against Hunger, KC Concepcion, is launching an online auction of her personal effects to raise funds to help fight hunger in conflict-stricken areas of Mindanao. KC's Closet Fights Hunger will auction off KC's dresses and bags and will be available for bidding on Ebay Philippines.

“It's hard to let go of these items cause I used them in important events. Parang you want to keep them for the memories. But anyway, it's for a good cause naman. That's what they say, true charity hurts,” she says.

KC's celebrity friends will also be joining the charity event, donating some of their personal belongings, as well. “Piolo Pascual will be auctioning off some of his books, which he signed,” KC reveals.

All the proceeds from the auction will go straight to the WFP Emergency Food for Education program. “Hinding, hinding, hindi po kami titigil sa pag-remind sa inyo na meron tayong problema sa Mindanao (We are not going to stop reminding you that we have a current problem in Mindanao),” KC asserts. “Together we can help give these children who have been affected by the conflict an incentive to attend and stay in school and give them the opportunity for a better future,” she adds.
